closet clean-up

I have had enough, I am about to go crazy with the mess!! I have decided to clean my closet, not only do I use it for clothes, but also a storage room for decorating crap and scrapbookstuff. I cant find anything!!!So..I cleaned it all right, I got rid of everything, I barely wore, or was too short, or made me look fatter than I already was. It took me 4 hours!!!

oh yea... its bad

  I am going to work on new baskets, or DIY them myself, and new hangers, I hate not having all matching..it makes it look unorganized.

might not seem like a big difference but, I promise it is. here some of the bags,  so full / its where I can barely carry them, and that's not including what had to be thrown out

 

 I mean this is just stinking ridiculous, I have become such a slob!!!

 this craft/whatever cabinet ..can I say junk collector!!!!

 ahhh finally some peace !!

 organized all my cards so I can grab them and not dig !!!

 



Finally Started

now let me explain to you, I have always been a rustic chic look, I love farmhouse, mixed with french, but also a bit of the classic, I am crazy I know,I like everything!!!!!!!!!! I like some traditional, but always my eyes go towards the rustic shabby stuff.. I love this fabric as much or more as what I had up there, it is a huge change for my home, but I am slowly getting to what I was before we moved in this house, and my hubby picked out this couch that looked like it belonged in a mans house, so I had to work with what I had...so now since my S.I.L.S. was sweet to give me her CREAM couch, I am back to my on my way to being who I am..I liked to decorate my sisters house, in the style I didn't have.

 

here  are some pic of what I have done in the bath( many times I know)

 

 

 

 

 

this was my bathroom before, well the very last , like Sunday,,lol, now I have had this curtain for almost 8 years, that is a record for me, but I just love this pattern, but it will go to my mommas house to be out up in her guest bath.

here is what my new fabric will look like, ( if it ever gets here)

 

 

 

 

here is my bath now, getting started( no curtain yet, Hollie said it echos too much and feels like a hospital bath), changed the mirror, and repainted to touch up the spackle from those gosh awful glue on back of builders mirrors.

 

 

 

 

 

the scroll shelf I had up, with the new mirror is way to much, I want an old rugged shelf with maybe a blue/grey chalk paint, then over the towel rack, which is just in front of toilet I will be putting this old window with the antique trays on it

 

 on my shelf I will out this

 vase that was leopard, I just painted yesterday, I will rub some brown on it, to look more rustic

 

 

so enough bath stuff, I made a few changes last week I forgot to post

 put the metal tile here instead of my rooster, just wanted a change

this was a mothers day gift from Sherry, I love the jeweled crown, its magnetic so you can out it anywhere, I made the saying even better

 love my little table from my mother in law

 Hollies announcement I made to send out

 



Mothers day

We had mothers day at Sherry's yesterday.  She has been very busy decorating EVERYTHING in her house..take a tour .... sorry for the mix up on the pictures, my phone didn't download them in order..( technology is oh so wonderful)

Freds Store

 I had a luncheon last week, and as you know from earlier posts, I didnt have any curtains up..so I ran to Fred's Dollar store and found these, they are a little darker than cream, but they go great in the guest room.. $8 a panel

 its like a crinkle, which I usually don't like, but they look pretty good to me for the price

 so I went ahead and got these for Hollies room, she had black polka dot ones up, but she said she wanted something brighter, since its so dark in there ( mind you I tried to talk her out of the red, but you know how tweens are)

 I love her picture wall, slowly building it up

 I think these are from Fred's too!!

 

Okay I told you I would probably repainting my G on the front door....I did, and love it so much more!!!!

 yep, I think its a keeper
